Summary When Protestant missionaries arrived in Hawaii in 1820 they were frustrated by the lack of a written language to help them teach the Hawaiians the lessons of the Bible in their native language. So they set about creating a written language beginning with the Latin alphabet. But to make it simple to learn they dropped many of the letters leaving only twelve, a diacritical mark and the okina character which indicates a pause within a word.
